That's in line with the leak my friend passed on to me. So thats pretty much it then? Jaal isn't bi, so gay guys can't romance squadmates... so basically a factor of the game everyone else gets to enjoy, taking your love interest with you on missions, has been denied to us. Its like Mass Effect 1 all over again. I'm gunna send some tweets out to try and get something. I am seriously considering cancelling my preorder if this is true. I've learned to not pre-order anything. Ever. I hope your tweeting will give us some results. I've had enough with my guys having blue balls when everyone else get's to bang/get frieking married. For me this is ME2 all over again (didn't romance anyone in any of my 20+ games), and SWTOR's every class-story.

Also, I do love how confirming straight romances for guys is totally not a spoiler (Cora & Peebee already had romantic scenes showne on video, Lexi is virtually guaranteed) but anything else is super spoiler and must be discovered! I think the scene with Peebee is the one where she tackles Ryder upon meeting them, not a romance scene (unless you're talking of a different scene?) One of the previews (couldn't tell you which one though, I've read a lot) says that Peebee mentions an ex-girlfriend. I don't think Peebee being available to femRyder was ever really in doubt, but this seems like a confirmation. Oooh, an ex-girlfriend? Interesting.

Asari not being available to SistaRyder (while available to BrothaRyder) wouldn't even make sense, she would literally be not into her own species then lol

Tumblr leaks got their leaks from here, from a guy on page 2 then stalked our Jaal thread and posted what we speculated.

I'm incredibly sceptical about these rumours. If there are two or more male and female options for Sara, and more than two female options for Scott on the squad but no male options for Scott on the squad that would be the most skewed the romance options have ever been. I'm sure that somebody would have picked up on that, and would be very surprised if it got through. I mean, it's possible, but I'm sure Bioware are fully aware of the justified outcry that would ensue. I can't see them doing it knowing that. It's possible that there's more than one male option for Scott who is an NPC or a "light romance". Maybe they've told themselves that's enough.

Well, in light of these depressing '' leaks '' THAT COULD BE WRONG, if I had to find something to be hopeful about, it's a gay male alien. OR AT THE VERY LEAST bi male alien. Even if he is an NPC, I don't care. But if there's no male romanceable male alien... I don't know what the HELL BW is thinking?! They could give me 100 hot NPCs and I would still be upset, no m/m options in the squad it's a deal breaker for me, those are always the characters who have more content and are more important storywise Well I am trying to find something positive in news/leaks that seem rather hopeless. So if boys don't get a chance at Jaal, it could be another male alien, WHICH COULD MEAN A MALE TURIAN FOR DUDES which I've been craving for! While not the optimal situation, it's still something, and I can find solace in that, even if they are an NPC. And furthermore, for all we know, the NPC romances have spectacular content, ESPECIALLY if the sole gay male romance is an NPC, they would be completely in the wrong to not give him good amount of content and make him important. If you ain't gonna give gay men a variety of options, and if you ain't going to make any of the male squadmates male accessible, then they better put all their goddamn effort into those damn NPC romances, because otherwise the shit is going to hit the fan. Or not, if straight male players and female players (of all sexualities) are content with their options, I doubt any shit will be hitting the fan. Gay male romances seem to be the bottom of the barrel in terms of importance.

You guys know all of these "leaks" are bs when they all contradict each other. It's unfortunate, but I guess we have to wait for official news.

Gay male romances seem to be the bottom of the barrel in terms of importance. I know what you mean, Cullen will be always my platonic boyfriend and he was a NPC character, but the thing of doing the missions with your partner in life is a thing very important to me. If they relegate m/m options to NPC only, it says a lot of ME team, so screeeeew them in that case. I hope I'm wrong, I would love to apologize if I can get just Jaal.

I can see them doing that quite easy, given their silence about strictly the m/m romances, but acting nonchalant about straight guys options with Cora and Peebee, and all the female LIs. They'd just argue that the content for the NPC/crewmember is long and very good and whatnot, trying to justify it. It wouldn't justfiy it, not at all, but it lines up completely with everything they've said, from Mac's "has to feel right" comments, to the stuff they've said about how every character has a lot of dialogue, more than ME3's characters. Sorry but there is no justification for gay guys being the only ones to not have a romanceable squadmate, and only having a crewmember. NONE.

They may compensate for it by allowing the male to nail everything that moves and not in the office like a male smuggler and imperial agent do in SWTOR.

I don't know if it amounts to anything but even if I get good content as a lesbian I won't be quiet if gay/bi guys gets shafted. The game having lots of lesbian content and very little gay (male) content would raise red flags for me. It would make me wonder if the lesbian content was made for women like me or for straight guys. I hope they don't fuck this up.

On one hand, why yes, it's definitely nice having your significant other roadtripping and fighting through battlefields with you. But on the other hand, and this is pretty meta, but I always feel pressured to take my significant other with me even if I didn't really want to for whatever reason, but then I feel bad if I don't wanna take him and it's a huge mess. So I'm not really discouraged by NPC romances, AS LONG AS they are full of content and the NPC is at least somehow important to the story. It also helps if he is hot lmao. But I agree, if they throw all the gay romances to NPCs, it does say a lot of the ME team.

The most annoying part about all of this is it could all have been avoided if they just released everyone's LI status and orientation. I fail to see how anyone's sexual orientation is a "spoiler."

The more they dance around it, the more I'm in disbelief and believe this is all just to trick people into being hopeful and preordering.
